The only thing I could think of is some kind of page refresh tied in with the javascript... You might ask over in our HTML/Page Design [webmasterworld.com] forum for javascripting ideas. I've noticed animated gifs also stop when you click on any links on the page, and never bothered to hunt too far for an answer (since most people are leaving the page when they click a link).

When you click a link or a form you start the browser event of loading a page even if there is no page to load. This stops animated gifs. You need to send your forms or links to a javascript that does whatever. It then needs to return false. This will start the gifs back up again. use the return false in an onClick attribute not the href. It won't work in a javascript: href. If you what to navigate somewhere and you want things to still animate use your location object.

onClick="whatever();return false" That should do it. I don't know if you let the function return false if it will work. I do it right out of the gate.
